Thanks.

Seems we have to redefine them in the subtypes.

Redefining all the inherited properties IS the right way AFAIK.
The configuration is property page related, not content hierarchy related, so it makes sense defining specifically what properties to show for each kind. You might want a type to inherit from the parent but not show some of the properties of the parent, or treat them in a differente way. Is annoying but AFAIK that is how it works.
